Autocracy is a bad thing, whether it's practiced one-on-one in the playground or whether it's practiced by government.

And that's why I started to say, wait a while I like liberty, I like individualism, I like to be left alone,

I like to kind of do what I want to do.

And if that's the way you think, then big government and the left is not your answer. not in alexer.

So we have a new book out on freedom of the press, where you talk about really the history of the press. And obviously, this has become hot topic, probably hot topic number one in the country, given President Trump's use of the phrase fake news so often. So let's talk a little bit about where we are with the press. So obviously,

you look at the polls, people hate the press, they don't trust the press. Aside from the obvious,

which is that the press is left wing, why do you think that that trust was undermined? Because

20 years ago, people did trust the press, and the press was similarly left wing.

You get a lot more competition in the press today. You've got the internet.

You've got your show.

You've got my show.

You've got other platforms that are out there.

A citizen can go on the internet and get news from anywhere in the world.

Different bloggers they may follow, different sites they may follow,

and then they're watching CNN.

Or they're watching MS, or they're watching

MSNBC.
